The Study was conducted with cross-sectional design using a quantitative approach. To determine whether there was interference lung function with a spirometer examination. Interviews were conducted on 24 workers from hot dip galvanizing department PT. Timur Megah Steel. Subjects were the total population. Interviews were conducted to obtain in-depth information about the variables studied. The independent variables were age, years of work, smoking habits, the habit of wearing respiratory protective equipment, exercise habits, and medical history. Worker that impaired lung function as much as 29.8%. Contingency coefficient test to assess the relationship indicates that there is relationship (p <0.05) between the variables years of work and exercise habits variables with the occurrence of impaired lung function. The years of work variable have moderate relationship (c = 0.581), whereas the exercise habits variable also have moderate relationship (c = 0.463). The conclusion that can be drawn is that workers have a longer years of work have higher risk for impaired lung function.
